Im looking for €12500 for a 1997 red low mileage GPX.

This 1997 White GPvR is priced at €10500 because it has higher mileage and is heavily modified which puts some people off. Also white is a less popular colour.

The higher price in the autotrader leaves room for bargining. I dont see anything too mysterious about that. :?:

Are you Interested in this car Gino?

Hi Mivec,
No, nothing too mysterious about that, i guess the 10,500 is rock bottom then?? Was very interested at the time, bought a manual GPX since. Its a pity but the price at the time put me off. But it is a super car.

Hi Gino, yes €10500 is absolute rock bottom. Good luck with your GPX is it a manual?.

I have to say that this car is an absolute rocket I think it must be a combination of the HKS air Filter and exhaust , Manual transmition, lower weight of the GPR and the excellent TEIN Suspention. It revs so easilyand can be pushed into corners like there is no tomorrow.

I drive a Turbo MR2 (1996 model: 245BHP) which is faster than the GPvR on a straight, smooth road. But this GPversionR is far faster on anything but a main road. It corners like its on rails and accelerates from low speeds much better (MR2 has a little turbo lag).

In the wet you have to crawl in the MR2, If the turbo comes on mid corner you are going backwards into the ditch with zero waring.

This this while not the fastest, is without a doubt the best handling car I have ever driven(Integra Type R included), and would be a hell of a lot of fun on a race track.

Sounds sweet Mivec, it sure is what ill be looking for at some point, maybe next year but for now the GPX will have to do. But the GPvR sure is trick.
